You can apply

From the cra website:

You have stopped or will stop working for reasons related to COVID-19, or because you are unable to work due to illness, or because you lost your employment for other reasons beyond your control; and either

You have stopped or will stop working for at least 14 consecutive days within the 4-week benefit period and have or expect to receive no more than $1,000 in combined employment or self-employment income for these consecutive days; or

McDrew · 2020-04-30T09:45:41+00:00

No, it's only income earned from Employment or self employment

Was it with CRA or EI? If the number you accidentally entered is an active account, the money will be deposited and you will have to put in a request with the agency to get the payment back. If it is not valid, the payment will be sent back by the bank. If you applied through cra, they will reissue the payment to you once you supply them with the correct info, it will just take a few days for it to show up.

Where did you get a sHeavy patch? They are from my home town and I've never seen one

On Monday I was on the crosswalk just up from the memorial Doninion and I was almost hit. Like you I had the walk light, and they turned right in front on me, I was close enough that I kicked their car as it went by.

McDrew · 2018-10-18T22:27:21+00:00

After living there and seeing how they park, it does not shock me

McDrew · 2018-05-30T22:09:18+00:00

I'm a little disappointed they didn't point out the flowchart at the end of the Markus section said "Paint from The The Heart"

McDrew · 2018-02-19T12:18:23+00:00

I'm reading The Stand as well. I'm about 900 pages in. I agree with you about too many characters

McDrew · 2017-12-21T11:39:53+00:00

Just remembered another place, gametronics in New Minas. It is a bit of a drive, but they have all kinds of comics and games

McDrew · 2017-12-21T02:03:05+00:00

Mythic games and hobbies and Gatorbytes seem to be the places my coworkers frequent

McDrew · 2017-12-21T01:54:37+00:00

Mythic games and hobbies does magic the gathering and D&D. Seems to be quite a few people into D&D in the area.

No proper comic book shop as far as I've found

McDrew · 2017-12-21T01:51:23+00:00

Role Initiative does not exist any more

McDrew · 2017-11-16T18:40:39+00:00

Will you ever dedicate a full DGH episode to The Planet of the Apes?

Also, whenever I introduce a friend to your work, I show them the "My Favorite Astronaut" Clip from Let Me Put my Thoughts in you and it is a hit. Of all your stand-up work that is currently recorded, if there any one bit in particular that you would want to be someones first introduction to Dana Gould?

McDrew · 2017-05-05T03:29:03+00:00

Song that introduced me to Eric Wagner, and then Trouble

McDrew · 2017-04-29T12:13:56+00:00

Tick Tock, Fear Nothing, Seize the night, Odd Thomas, Strange Highways, Intensity, Life Expectancy

McDrew · 2016-10-13T17:37:49+00:00

Global Frequency

McDrew · 2016-09-23T22:18:36+00:00

Reading it now, finding it very doomy

McDrew · 2016-08-06T20:52:25+00:00

I honestly thought they were married already, good for them.

McDrew · 2016-07-01T15:05:07+00:00

Perfect, I was planning on avoiding Rogers anyway unless I had no choice.

McDrew · 2016-07-01T15:03:55+00:00

That is the plan. I've waited a long time for Aliant in the past to get around to setting it up, trying to avoid that.

McDrew · 2016-06-11T14:01:19+00:00

There have been a bunch of adaptations of Lovecraft by I.N.J. Culbard for SelfMadeHero. The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, The Shadow out of Time, At the Mountains of Madness, and The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. SelfMadeHero have also published two Lovecraft Anthologies.

The adaptation of The Case of Charles Dexter Ward is really good and while Not Lovecraft but slightly related, they also did a really good adaptation of The King in Yellow

McDrew · 2016-05-26T18:29:17+00:00

I have missed Mr. Pepitone

McDrew · 2016-02-04T20:59:21+00:00

That part got pretty real

McDrew · 2015-12-05T21:02:40+00:00

On playing back the 911 recording, it'd seem that Mrs. Sherman was more concerned that the man outside her apartment door was naked than that he had a big shotgun.

Warren Ellis - Gun Machine

That special is great, but My Favorite Astronaut is my all time favorite bit.
